SAFETY INFORMATION AND UNPACKING YOUR APPLIANCE
!WARNING
WARNING - You can be killed or seriously injured
if you do not follow these instructions.
!WARNING
WARNING - Dispose of the plastic bags which can
be a suffocation hazard.
!WARNING
State of California Proposition 65 Warning:

INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Template For Installing the Name Badge
To Install, use the template below to locate the name badge on the door. Remove the adhesive and apply the name
badge to the door.

!CAUTION
Outdoor Installation
Do not install in a location where the ice machine will
be exposed to direct sun exposure as this may result in
unsatisfactory performance.
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of
your appliance. We recommend a location where the ice
machine will be out of direct sunlight and away from heat
sources. To ensure your product performs to specifications,
the recommended installation location temperature range
is from 55 to 90°F (13 to 32°C) for built in ice machines and
55 to 100°F (13 to 38°C) for freestanding ice machines. Ice
machines will not perform correctly in ambient tempera-
tures less than 55°F (13°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appli-
ance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.
Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around
the appliance as long as the front grille remains unob-
structed. Overlay door models with articulated hinges are
intended for built-in applications only

!WARNING
WARNING - Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of
the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still
dangerous - even if they sit out for "just a few hours".
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please
follow the instructions below to help prevent acci-
dents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or
freezer:
• Take off the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not
easily climb inside.
Front grille
Front grille screw
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appli-
ance should be set so the unit is firmly positioned on the
floor and level from side to side and front to back. The over-
all height of your Lynx appliance may be adjusted between
the minimum, 333⁄4" (85.7 cm), by turning the leveling leg in
(CW P) and the maximum, 343⁄4" (88.3 cm) by turning the
leveling leg out (CCW Q).
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid
surface and protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid
scratching the floor. With the assistance of another person,
lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs.
Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning
the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appli-
ance forward using caution. On a level surface check the
appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille screws may be loosened and the grille ad-
justed to the desired height. When adjustment is complete
tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 3).
Figure 2
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within
the front grille allow air to flow through the
condenser heat exchanger. Restrictions to this air
flow will result in increased energy usage, loss of
cooling capacity and low ice production. For this
reason it is important this area not be obstructed and
the grille openings kept clean. Lynx Grills does not
recommend the use of a custom made grille as air
flow may be restricted. (See Figure 2).

Electrical Shock Hazard
• Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
They can be hazardous and can degrade product
performance.
• This appliance should not, under any circumstanc-
es, be installed to an un-grounded electrical supply.
• Do not remove the grounding prong from the power
cord. (See Figure 4.)
• Do not use an adapter. (See Figure 5).
• Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the
appliance. Doing so may cause an electrical shock,
which may result in severe injury or death.
!WARNING
A grounded 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is required.
This product is factory equipped with a power supply
cord that has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be
plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accor-
dance with the National Electrical Code and applicable lo-
cal codes and ordinances (see Figure 6). If the circuit does
not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility
and obligation of the customer to provide the proper power
supply. The third ground prong should not, under any cir-
cumstances, be cut or removed.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are prone to nui-
sance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut down.
GFCI’s are generally not used on circuits with power equip-
ment that must run unattended for long periods of time, un-
less required to meet local building codes and ordinances.

Electrical Shock Hazard
Reasonable care and safe methods should be prac-
ticed. Do NOT work with energized electrical equip-
ment in a wet area. Read and follow the installation
instructions listed in this manual.
!WARNING
!CAUTION
Failure to use an adequate drainage system, will result in
surrounding water damage and/or poor ice production.

Drain Plumbing
Your ice machine requires drain plumbing. If drain is above
6 inches it will require a drain pump. See optional drain
pump section below.
Gravity Drain (no drain pump):
The ice machine is shipped with the drain line installed,
coiled and secured to the back of the cabinet as shown in
Figure 10. It can be uncoiled, routed to an appropriate
drain and cut to length as required. Additionally there is
the provision of drain routing through the cut-out in the
bottom of the unit, (see the gray area in Figure 11). A drain
can be installed in this gray area with the drain line cut to a
short length and positioned into the drain as shown in
Figure 12, or if the ice machine is to be built-in, the drain
tube could be routed through a hole in the floor in this gray
area to a drain below.
The gravity drain line must be routed no higher than 6"
(15.2 cm) off the floor to assure proper drainage.
!CAUTION

INSTALLING THE DRAIN PLUMBING
This drain pump is designed to be installed in Lynx ice
machines only and approved for use with water only.

Optional Drain Pump.
An optional drain pump is available if you have purchased
an ice machine without one and do not have access to a
gravity drain. Installation instructions are provided with the
optional drain pump. Contact Lynx Grills Customer Service
at 888.289.5969 or your dealer for ordering.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Risk of electrical shock or personal injury could occur
due to moving components, if the machine compartment
access cover is removed before unplugging the ice
machine power cord.
!WARNING

Reverse osmosis, (RO), water, softened water, and de-
ionized water are not recommended as they can adversely
affect the quality and quantity of the ice.

Water Supply
Observe and follow all local building codes when installing
this appliance.
This ice machine must be connected to a potable cold
water supply line. delivering water pressure between a
minimum of 20 psi and a maximum of 120 psi.
Use 1⁄4" copper tubing for your water supply which is available
at any local hardware or plumbing supply store. Route the
1⁄4" copper tubing to suit your installation being sure not
to kink the tubing. Purchase enough copper tubing length
to allow a coil to be formed behind the unit for a "service
loop" which will allow the appliance to be pulled out from
the installation for servicing or cleaning. (See Figure 14).
Connect the copper tubing to the "top side" of a cold water
pipe to prevent the ice-maker from plugging with sediment.
A shutoff valve is recommended on the water supply line to
ease servicing the appliance. NOTE: A SELF-PIERCING
TYPE VALVE IS NOT RECOMMENDED as they are prone
to clogging with sediment which will create pressure drop
reducing the water supply to the unit.
Connect the copper tubing water supply to the water valve
inlet with a 1/4" compression nut fitting.
IMPORTANT: Secure the water supply line to the back of
the cabinet with the screw and strain relief clamp provided
in the corner of the back panel. (See Figure 14).
Make certain all connections are watertight after
installation. Form the tubing so that it will not vibrate
against the cabinet body or kink when your appliance is
moved in and out of position.
This ice machine is designed to make clear ice from the
majority of water sources on a daily basis. If your results
are unsatisfactory, your water may need to be filtered or
treated. A water specialist can recommend proper water
treatment.
!CAUTION
To prevent water leaks:
• The water line fitting is to be used with copper tubing
only. Do not use with plastic tubing.
• Do not use any thread sealers on this water line fitting.
